Due to the need for social distancing requirements and keeping all our members and the museum staff safe, the Women’s Committee will be hosting three Zoom Programs this Winter.

These virtual events will be on the 4th Monday of each month at 11:00 a.m. on Zoom. Links will be sent to all members the morning of the program.

May 10, 2021 | Please join the Women’s Committee as we venture out to Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park & Museum in Hamilton. This idyllic setting of spring awakening in the trees is home to 300+ acres of land and sculptures. Your admission to the park will be covered by the Women’s Committee. There will be a served buffet lunch. We will have Art Carts to use for the tour of the park with lunch following the tour in The Pavilion.

We will keep everyone updated to any changes that we may have to make due to social distance requirements.
